- Is the Perennial Buffet Lamp solid wood?
- Yes. The base is hand-lathed from solid birch, not resin or veneer. The maker notes that grain, color and texture vary between pieces.
- How tall is it, and what size shade does it take?
- It stands 29.5 inches tall with a 12-inch-wide, 9-inch-tall linen drum shade. The base is 6 inches in diameter, so it fits narrow consoles.
- Will the lamp match the photo exactly?
- No. Finishes are purposely distressed and the wood varies, so color and grain will differ from the image. The maker does not treat that as a defect.
- Is it bright enough to read by?
- It is an accent lamp with a single standard socket, so it is better for ambient light on a sideboard or entry table than for reading.
- Does it have a dimmer or smart controls?
- No. It uses standard wiring with an 8-foot cord and a conventional socket, with no dimmer or smart features.
- Where does it work best in a home?
- Sideboards, console tables and entryways, especially in coastal, rustic or farmhouse rooms. Pair it with a mirror or artwork for height.
